Asking the Co-Founders, Mike and Samya
Is there a story that has impacted you the most over 25 years?
This vision was always beyond us and bigger than us, but the Lord provided prayer warriors, partners, committed workers, and resources in ways that never cease to amaze us.
We remember one time in the early years of the ministry when there were fewer than 10 staff members, and there was only enough funding to continue for 4 weeks. For days, we were fasting and praying. One day, we went on a walk and found a bench to sit on and pour our hearts out to the Lord.
We prayed to God: “This is the vision you’ve given us, but we’ve been trying to hold the steering wheel. Lord, from today, we give you this ministry. Even if you choose not to continue this ministry, we will keep serving you because you gave us this love for Muslims to know You.”
A weight was lifted from us. Two weeks passed; nothing changed, but God had given us deep peace as we continued to wait. Then the Lord released His blessings, and we began to get an outpouring of generosity. God was teaching us and allowing us to surrender our lives, calling, and this ministry entirely to Him!
We recognize that this ministry is part of the army that the Lord has raised in this age in particular to use technology to advance the gospel in ways that have never been done before. What an honor!

Board Member, Treasurer, and Partner for over 12 years
I always describe Call of Love as a loaves-and-fishes ministry. I’ve been involved for 12 years, and I am stunned at what gets done with limited resources. The ministry is so critical, and yet it operates so efficiently. I’ve never seen another ministry run so effectively.

It has been a blessing to be involved with COL in a small way. Our church loves supporting them, and I love the opportunities I get to volunteer.
It is faith-building to hear the stories of Muslims who are so lost and who come to know Jesus and are transformed. I am amazed at how God is working in some of the hardest-to-reach places!

Testimonies over 25 years
Khalia's
Story
Khalia is a young Muslim mother in Lebanon who met Christ after her neighbor, a member of Redeemed Church, shared the gospel with her. For years, Khalia has had ongoing health problems, with recurring tumors her doctors were never able to explain.
She and her husband joined Redeemed Church, and soon after, a large tumor came back. This time, she had the community of the church rallying around her and praying for healing.
Khalia’s doctors were amazed that when they removed this tumor, it was benign! She praises the Lord for healing her again.
Khalia received medical support from our volunteer physicians with financial relief to cover her medical bills.
After two years in the church, Khalia was secretly baptized by our pastors along with 18 Redeemed Church members. Khalia and her husband continue to faithfully attend our weekly services and grow in the Lord.
Qadira and
Omar's story
Qadira and her husband, Omar, are both converts in Egypt who were greatly persecuted by their community.
Unfortunately, Omar could not deal with all the persecution so he slid back into his Islamic practices. Qadira remained faithful, growing in her faith and eventually joining Redeemed Church.
Every week, Qadira intentionally watched Redeemed Church services in the same room as Omar, and as time went by she noticed he was listening more and more.
Finally, Omar asked Qadira if he could attend church with her again, and he met with the Redeemed Church discipleship pastor. Omar prayed with the pastor, recommitting his life to Christ and connecting two of his friends with the church who were in similar situations!
Now Qadira and Omar continue to be a light in Egypt, and are raising their two children to know Jesus.
Jalal's
Story
Jalal has a law degree in Egypt, and is married with a son. He grew up in a Salafi family, which is a reformist and conservative sect of Islam. They believe in returning to Islam’s core practices that existed during the first generations with Muhammad and his predecessors – violent expansion and domination.
Despite having studied Islamic law, Jalal hid a Bible in his home and studied it. He wanted to see how the Bible treated those outside of Christianity and how God wanted His people to treat others. He reached out to Glory TV with questions.
Jalal studied the Bible with Glory TV’s contact center team for many weeks and fell in love with the sacrificial person of Christ. This summer, he prayed with our team over the phone and surrendered his life to Jesus!

Call of Love Media Director since 2016
On a personal level, this ministry is a faith-stretching ministry. You cannot become part of this ministry and not see God moving in ways that are unexplainable to the world, and even amongst believers. There are so many God stories and things that have happened that are only possible through divine providence..
We know for sure that for every person that accepts Christ, there are many, many more who do accept Christ yet never contact us.
Staff Highlights
Remon S.
Director of Glory TV and Redeemed Church
My biggest takeaway as a servant in Call of Love is that glorifying the Lord is the ultimate goal and number one in our mission. Number two is the souls for whom the Lord Jesus Christ paid the highest price, and the vision that the Lord called us to fulfill: presenting the good news of the Bible to the lost.
The unique impact Call of Love has on the Kingdom is delivering the good news of the Bible in remote and closed cities and countries where people still live in darkness. I see it as a battle where a landing happens behind enemy (Satan's) lines to win souls for the Kingdom by using technology and media for evangelism and discipleship.

We have the privilege to work in a ministry that shares the Gospel with Muslim believers in closed Islamic countries throughout the Middle East. Never in the history of evangelism has this type of ministry been possible.
I am often a skeptic when it comes to extraordinary moves of God that require significant steps of faith. Since 2017 as a member of this team, I have seen countless "moves of God" that have completely shattered my skepticism!
Christine E.
Glory TV Evangelist
(a former Muslim from Iraq)
As a Glory TV evangelist, I see Muslims come to Christ every week, and I chat with them every day. Seeing someone move from doubt to faith, or from fear to hope, is always a powerful reminder of God's work.
One of the stories that impacted me most was that of Fayed from Yemen. Twenty years before, a friend had given him a letter about Christ, and the words about Christ’s forgiveness and eternal life stayed with Fayed.

In the US, only .064% of all money given to missions is allocated to share the gospel with unreached people groups.
You can join the less than 1% that is making an eternal impact in the farthest and most isolated corners of the world!
Recurring and faithful giving creates a steady and strong foundation for all ministry efforts to proclaim the gospel to Muslims and provide discipleship for the underground church.
In 2025, Open Doors USA said, “In the Middle East especially, several Christian communities are dwindling and, in some cases, on the verge of extinction.”
We will not let that happen.
Together, we can build up the underground church for the next 25 years and beyond.
